Hi,
I want to create a new Tools base website using HTML, CSS, and javascripts. And I want to asked something about for HTML, CSS and Javascript.

I wouldn’t clone the website exactly, but you can get ideas for your own and incorporate them into your own website. To answer your question, yes you can copy a website as all you have to do is look at the HTML and CSS.

HTML, CSS and JS (i.e client-side components) can be copied (copyright legalities aside), yes, but if a web site has any server components, you won’t be able to copy them.

Perhaps we first need to know why you want to clone another site to make your own site.
If it is because you are not yet confident enough with the code to make your own from scratch, then there may be other better options than cloning and altering an existing site.

Yeah. Cloning might not be such a great idea. Just borrow some of the concepts and create something unique

you can analyze the structure and design of existing websites to gain inspiration and knowledge. You can create your website from scratch, using your own design and content while using the ideas from other websites as inspiration.

thanks

One way is to use a web scraping tool, such as HTTrack or SiteSucker, which can download all of the website’s HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files to your computer. From there, you can use these files to create a new website, making sure to update any references to the original website’s name, logo, or branding.

Another method is to use a content management system (CMS) that allows you to import a theme or template that includes the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files from the original website. WordPress, for example, has many free and premium themes available that can be customized to fit your needs.

What proficiency do you have with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript? What kinds of projects have you already created?

This is feasible, get the framework of the site and the main js, css, too detailed may be difficult to deal with

To clone a website and use its HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files for your new website, you need to download the necessary files, replicate the file structure, copy the files into your project folder, customize the content and design, test and debug, and then host your website online.
